The commission shall promulgate rules regarding leasing, rental, lease-to-own, and conditional purchase arrangements to obtain a for-hire vehicle for use with a license issued by the commission. In promulgating such rules, the commission shall at a minimum consider disclosure requirements, consumer protection practices and caps on the amounts payable pursuant to such arrangements, including but not limited to limits on deposits and other charges required as part of such arrangements, such as those set forth in section 58-21 of title 35 of the rules of the city of New York.
